Chapter 203: I won’t let you
"That’s a piece of cake for me, babe." Hearing his curious mumble, Zenith tossed a confident smile while draping his arm tightly around Kylian’s body, nestling him closer to him before he asserted.
"I have countless men deployed under me, and with just one call to Mr. Clark, he can arrange a whole mansion for us to live in the woods. Or...maybe if you prefer the ocean, we can simply build a beachside villa where we will be able to spend the rest of our lives peacefully without any interruption!"
"Pfft!" But a soft snort escaped from Kylian, but it wasn’t sarcastic. He found his goofy nature quite adorable, as Kylian pinched Zenith on his left cheek before murmuring in a diligent voice, "Did you forget that we are planning to run away from everyone? Does that mean will you keep ties with Mr. Clark even when you’re afar? Then what would it even signify to run away from home?"
Indeed, his words made Zenith realize he wasn’t thinking rationally at all, and those words were only blabbers that came out of him just like habit. But Kylian’s ability to foresee any complex situation was way too sharp compared to him. Zenith rolled his orbs, putting on an impressed expression when he muttered, "Yeah...you’re right, babe. I didn’t think about it at all..."
"No matter what kind of troubles await us in the future, as the young master from a flourishing household...it wouldn’t be easy for you to run away from home like a rebellious teenager. Life’s quite harsh, Zenith. I have experienced a bitter life from a very young age, so that’s why...I don’t want you to think of every possibility before making a decision."
Gently caressing his palm on Zenith’s cool skin, Kylian spoke those words sincerely that came out from his heart, making Zenith admire him even more than ever.
But following an anticipating silence, Zenith’s onyx eyes which held a cryptic look in them until now radiated with a blissful tint, as if he came up with another idea pretty quickly.
"If hard labor jobs will be too much, then I can always use my biggest asset here...my handsome face. Isn’t it a much better idea, babe?"
Zenith’s unexpected mumble startled Kylian quite hard and raised his eyebrow, he sounded quite anxious while asking him back, "Using your face...huh? What do you mean by that?"
